Manolo Blahnik Hearts The Royals

Unlike some people we know, Manolo Blahnik has nothing but nice things to say about Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton.

The shoe designer gushed to Footwear News:

“I love pomp and circumstance, and I’m very respectful of tradition, [so the wedding was nice to see]. Kate and William are great [spokespeople] for England. They are so popular, and that will help the country during troubled times. They will bring in a lot of money. It’s nice to see them grow up, but it’s kind of depressing because you realize so much time has passed. I remember William running around at Kensington Palace with his mother.”

Not to mention she’ll help your bank account too, especially if the Duchess is wearing YOUR shoes.
